This term our class will be having Student Led conferences. This is a great opportunity to allow students to talk about their learning and share some of the cool projects they have completed. Prior to the conference students will review their material and select specific pieces of work to discuss and will only be focused on these few pieces. All other material from the second term will be sent home for you to look at when you have more time.
The purpose of these conferences is to involve the students and allow them to take the lead in discussing their learning. Students will identify their strengths and goals and we will discuss ways to help them as teachers and parents.
The conference will be approximately 15 minutes in length, but feel free to stay longer if needed. There will be more than one family in the room, this will allow for the students to feel more relaxed and comfortable so they can talk freely about their work. I will join each family to touch base and answer any questions that may arise.
Ms. Christison, a student teacher, has been working with us since March 9th. She will also be available to talk to and will answer any questions that you may have.
If the Thursday evening or Friday morning does not work for your schedule please feel free to contact me at the school to arrange an alternate time.
